Thats us home. What a brilliant weekend thanks to everyone who came...

Brilliant company great roads and beautiful weather (mostly) and the Ale in the Applecross Inn was perfect for us all...



I'll post some photos soon.

Other than thanks for organising it Alan I've gotta say your riding was immense this weekend at points I could have sworn your Busa was on rails

Ditto everything that Dean said above. Scotland looking immense (today especially) and a cracking weekend all round. Nice to meet a few of you for the first time too. Thanks lads and lasses for a spot-on jaunt.

Cheers guys and gals, and cheers for the organising again

I got home about 1ish, went to sleep for 2 hrs then went shopping then played 90mins of football (and scored). I am ruined!...

Last minute decision to go turned out to be brilliant.

Great to meet up again with good friends in a glorious setting, supping a fab pint of 'home brew' lol.
We got home about 1pm.

No tyre issues, but did cook my brakes decending the bealach both times. Note to self: Should stick to two wheels on that road.

Got back about an hour ago. Got held up by a crash south of Muthill and got turned around (guy on a bike seemed to have swiped a 4x4 on a bend.).

Good to see ya all again. Had a great time. Roads were awesome and the company was superb as usual.

Wendy and I had a great wee weekend guys......Thanks for your company .

We sure knocked it off with the weather, which makes a beautiful place even beautifulerer and the riding even better.

It was nice to get a couple of surprise visits.
Kate day tripped just to get fish and chips and to make sure we all had a drink.
Haggis and MrsHaggisMcAmanda came for a one nighter and to see the awesome sunset, which I'd booked and paid out of my own pocket.

Saturday's ride to Ullapool was excellent, apart from someone nicking some rubber off my back tyre. I've only got one speed setting (medium), so it
didn't affect my weekend, except having to tell Wendy "It'll be fine" every time we stopped .......... and it was fine .

Sunday's ride home was via Skye and the cool wee Glenelg Ferry. Well worth the detour.

A nice wee weekend with a nice wee bunch of &$%£&£'s............ Missing you already .

Thanks all for a great weekend. Spot on! ( except for the canine midnight chorus! )
Yesterday didn't quite go to plan . .
Went over to the east coast & bagged the ' Hill of Many Stanes ' for the photo comp & then changed my mind about JOG, cos it was near. Big mistake - hate to say it but it doesn't look to be your country's finest outpost
Anyways, time for home . .
Ended up in Edinburgh where a guy with L plates told me my rear light was kaput. Couldn't get at it, so made cautious progress. took ages to find the ring road, but did see all of the new tram system, lots of it more than once!
Down A68 via Jesmond, using my 'third eye' to spot traffic catching me & since it was by now a bit foggy there was a bit of that.
Eventually hit A1 and reckoned the only problem was others catching me, so made sure that didn't happen - silly but made it at quarter past three this morning!
. . oh, and the dog wanted a drink at half past six.
Signing off: your jaded scribe
Thanks again one and all.
Oh, Dean - did you get a pic of the stripper?
